A Sharp Intake Of Breath

This classic sitcom, first broadcast in 1977, stars David Jason as happy-go-lucky Peter Barnes who tries to deal with the daily frustrations his life throws at him. Richard Wilson (One Foot in the Grave) and Alun Armstrong (New Tricks) play a range of petty officials and bureaucrats whose sole purpose in life, it seems, is to make Peter's life a misery by blocking him at every move.
